EtherCAT network type.
MINAS A5B servo driver (EtherCAT network type)
EtherCAT (Ethernet for Control Automation Technology) offers similar excellent features like RTEX. However, EtherCAT is an open, standardized field bus that allows an open data exchange with all other EtherCAT motion controllers.
Easy mounting and reliable connections thanks to loop wiring
Easy wiring with usual LAN cable. No tools are necessary.
